    PitlaneMCP - Codebase Navigation

    Example session with this skill installed

    I'm exploring the ripgrep Rust codebase. Starting from the main entry point, identify the shortest execution path that leads to a regex match being written to stdout.
    Show the essential functions and their source files in execution order. Exclude alternative output modes and unrelated branches. Ground the answer in actual repository symbols, and retrieve only the code needed to establish the path.

    • Read your context and instructions
    • Compiled the pitlanemcp - codebase

    Exploring ripgrep with PitlaneMCP

    Task: Trace how ripgrep processes a regex search,
    from its CLI entry point to writing matches to stdout.

    Step 1 — Prepare the repository

    The agent uses ensure_project_ready to check
    the repository index.

    Step 2 — Discover the execution path

    Instead of reading entire source files, the agent
    uses PitlaneMCP's navigation tools:

    ToolPurpose
    investigateDiscover relevant implementation details
    trace_pathIdentify the execution path
    locate_codeLocate specific functions
    read_code_unitRetrieve focused source code

    Step 3 — Produce an evidence-backed answer

    The agent identifies the essential execution stages:

    1. CLI entry point and argument processing
    2. Search configuration and orchestration
    3. File traversal and input selection
    4. Regex matching and search execution
    5. Text output and stdout writing

    The final answer should name the exact source files
    and functions, with evidence from the repository.

    Benchmark evidence

    PitlaneMCP was evaluated against native agent
    navigation on 19 ripgrep tasks, repeated three times.

    ModelNative qualityPitlaneMCP quality
    Qwen3 8B0.1150.326
    Qwen3 14B0.1430.277

    Result: PitlaneMCP improved aggregate navigation
    quality in both environments.

    These are benchmark quality scores, not percentages.
    The results measure the MCP server, not the additional
    benefit of the companion skill.

    About this skill

    Navigate large codebases efficiently

    PitlaneMCP is an open-source MCP server that provides code intelligence capabilities to AI coding agents.

    This companion skill teaches agents how to use PitlaneMCP effectively, choosing the right tools for each task while minimizing unnecessary code retrieval.

    Features

    • Symbol-level code discovery and navigation
    • Semantic and lexical code search
    • Execution-path tracing
    • Dependency and change-impact analysis
    • Token-efficient source code retrieval
    • Indexed documentation search
    • Intelligent fallback to native agent tools

    Compatible agents

    Designed for coding agents supporting MCP and agent skills, including Claude Code, OpenCode, Cursor, and compatible environments.

    Requirements

    PitlaneMCP must be installed and configured separately.

    The skill provides agent instructions and configuration examples. It does not include the MCP server binary.

    Open Source

    PitlaneMCP is free and open source, licensed under MIT OR Apache-2.0.
